Seeing the innocent look of wonder that came over Yusei right at the beginning as they stared up at a huge underwater viewing glass (granted, it was easily matched by his own, he was sure) was all Judai needed to be convinced that this had been a great idea. The one they were in front of was one of many, but it was the biggest one of all of them and let them see hundreds of creatures co-existing under the water.
The water and glass caused a bit of a blue reflection down on them, but Judai found that it just made the sight even better and really brought out he sparkle on Yusei's face. He almost wanted to take a picture of it, but he refrained from doing so, knowing internally that it wouldn't be nearly as good as he wished it would be.
"There's so many different kinds of fish in this one area..." Yusei marveled, staring at organized chaos unfolding on the other side of the glass; Judai noticed that he was sub-consciously inching closer himself to the glass panel like he was going to squish his face against the glass, and soon enough the image was stuck in his head and too funny not to let out an accidental laugh of amusement.
This ended up being what was needed to catch Yusei's attention again, and upon seeing the happy but confused look he was giving him, decided to explain, "You're slowly inching closer to the glass, I wouldn't be surprised if you ended up squishing your face up against it like in all those cliches and stuff."
Yusei flushed as look of realization fell over him, looking away sheepishly back at the glass and saying, "I didn't... realize I was doing that. Or that we were so close to it in the first place."
"I know, you're cute, you don't have to tell me twice," Judai teased, poking him in the cheek a little and enjoying the red on his face before finally relenting with a fond grin, "Come on, we can come back here later. There's tons of other stuff to see and we won't be able to hit all of it unless we start now."
"Okay," Yusei mumbled, being the first one to thread their hands back together even if he was still looking away out of embarrassment. He took a deep breath, which seemed to work well in helping him re-center himself, before finally being able to look at Judai again and return the grin, "I still have to find something that looks like your hair, after all."
"And like I said, good luck with that," Judai retorted, feeling relatively confident that he wouldn't be able to find something - he couldn't think of anything off the top of his head, so he was pretty certain there wasn't anything that came close.
"You're literally jinxing yourself," Yubel snickered mentally, laughing more when he pouted at her in return.
You're the one jinxing it by mentioning it! He complained, though he was quick to add on, Oh, if you see anything you want to look at more, just tell me okay? We'll stay, I know Yusei wouldn't mind in the slightest. That goes to you too, Haou.
"As if I'd find anything interesting enough," Haou huffed, his words completely contrasting with the fact that he was currently paying attention to what was going on and had been doing so since they'd reached the aquarium. Still, though, Judai wasn't going to call him out on it - it was significantly easier just to let him do his thing, especially since Judai wanted him to have fun whenever he could, the same sentiment applying to Yubel as well (though he could call her out without worrying most of the time because of how playful she was).
"So... which area should we go to, anyway?" Judai asked, pulling on Yusei's hand lightly to tug him to a stop so they could look over the map, "There's a lot here, and they're based on the uh... living conditions?"
"Biome."
"Right, that thing. They're based off that and a few other things for the more specific ones."
"Well, how about this one? It looks like it all goes in loops on the second floor so we'll always end up back at the start anyway, so it'll be easy to go around the entire floor," Yusei suggested, pointing at the place on the map he was talking about, "Plus the door to the outside section is there, so we'll be able to go check that out right after... hopefully it's not too sunny outside."
"It's not supposed to get very hot today, don't worry. I'm pretty sure it's actually supposed to get foggy," Judai reassured him before agreeing with what he'd said, "Sounds good to me, though. Guess we'll just cover the first floor last, then."
"It's not like there's a particular order, anyway," Yusei shrugged, carefully folding the map back up before handing it off to him for safekeeping.
Once he'd gotten everything all packed away and ready to go, Judai was about to lead him off again before pausing, saying after a little bit, "Uh, I know I said we gotta get going, but I'm really thirsty. Let's get drinks first?"
Yusei simply chuckled and gave him a smirk, "Of course we can. I should've expected this, really."
...He wasn't that predictable, was he?
